Our power lies in our small daily choices, one after another, to create eternal ripples of a life well lived.
-Mollie Marti, Psychologist and Lawyer
How do you make your good ideas happen? In Good magazine (Fall 2010), Scott Belsky provides three tips:
"Overcome reactionary work flow. The constant inflow of stuff — email, texts, tweets — causes us to react rather than be proactive with our energy. Create windows of non-stimulation in your day to be proactive with your energy.
"Organize with a bias toward action. Enter every meeting and occasion of creativity with an obsession for capturing 'action steps.' When a meeting yields nothing actionable, question its existence. Keep action steps separate from notes.
"Share ideas liberally. The more people who know your ideas, the more accountable you will be to follow through. Use blogs, networks, and social media to spread ideas, gather feedback, and boost accountability."

Okay - it's top early I guess - didn't read the top of the page.

I love the quote in today's exchange: "Share ideas liberally. The more people who know your ideas, the more accountable you will be to follow through. Use blogs, networks, and soci al media to spread ideas, gather feedback, and boost accountability."
I'd like to use it but don't know who to give credit to. Please advise.
Thanks
